An improved AC standstill inductance test method for interior PM synchronous motor considering cross-magnetization effect

An improved AC standstill inductance measurement method for interior permanent magnet synchronous machine (IPMSM) is proposed in this paper. Only the 3-phase voltage source, oscilloscope, and DC voltage source are required, rather than the dynamometer and inverter in the other methods. Depending on the deduced q- and d-axis voltage equations in the stationary reference frame, the q- and d-axis inductances at different current magnetite and vector angle can be calculated by the measured 3-phase voltages and currents. Thus, the saturation and cross-magnetizing effect of the inductances are measurable. This paper will introduce the principle equations, experiment setup, data processing, and results comparison
